Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 45–61mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Honor Watch Magic and Watch GT Elegant Edition share a near-identical 42.8mm case, so wrist presence comes down to thickness, lug-to-lug and weight.
The Honor Watch Magic is the slimmer of the two (9.8mm vs 10.5mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Honor Watch Magic feels lighter (32.5g vs 36.2g, case only).
The Honor Watch Magic is thinner than 98% of the 315 43mm watches we hold thickness for, the Watch GT Elegant Edition than 97% — so both wear flatter than their widths suggest.
The Honor Watch Magic is 0.7mm thinner and 3.7g lighter than the Watch GT Elegant Edition. Both are circular.
